      Year? I’m thinking generations. It took decades to build our relationship with the USA, and mere weeks for Trump to destroy it. This can’t be rebuilt in a single lifetime, especially when more than 2/3rds of American voters are at the very least okay with what has happened, if not enthusiastic about it.
